End-users request transmission opportunities before accessing the system which provides an efficient way to share system resources. In this paper we briefly review the PHY and MAC layers of an OFDMA-based WiMAX system and we propose to use a Network Utility Maximization NUM framework to formulate the DAMA strategy foreseen in the uplink of IEEE . Utility functions are chosen to achieve fair solutions attaining different degrees of fairness and to further support the QoS requirements of the services in the system. Moreover since the standard allocates resources in a terminal basis but each terminal may support several services we develop a new decomposition technique the coupled-decompositions method that obtains the optimal service flow allocation with a small number of iterations the improvement is significant when compared to other known solutions . Furthermore since the PHY layer in mobile WiMAX has the means to adapt the transport capacities of the links between the Base Station BS and the Subscriber Stations SSs the proposed PHY-MAC cross-layer design uses this extra degree of freedom in order to enhance the network utility.
